Talk:Bread and Roses

Public domain

The song is old enough to be public domain. -- Jmabel 05:20, Jun 16, 2004 (UTC)

The Poem by James Oppenheim is old enough(1912); the music by Mimi Farina is not (1976). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.227.53.207 (talk • contribs) 12:01, 20 May 2005

Origins

Also, I believe recent scholarship has shown that the slogan did not emerge from the Lawrence strike. Does anyone else know more on this? - Jmabel | Talk 04:17, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

See http://www.boondocksnet.com/labor/history/bread_and_roses_history.html

There are even earlier claims on pages linked from http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/qt-s_ros.html (though I'm not sure how well documented, and apparently not including the specific juxtaposition "bread and roses"). Churchh 20:27, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Bruce Watson's Bread and Roses (Template:ISBN) argues that the slogan did not emerge from the Lawrence strike (pg. 256-7). His work is meticulously documented and I judge it highly reliable. I plan to incorporate it into the article relatively shortly. The relevant passage:

That's from pages 256-257, and includes five citations that I've omitted. One of them references another, more recent, work by Zwick, the author of the first link above. -David Schaich ^Talk/_Cont 00:47, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

Moving this from main article

Removed as likely copyright violation. 💵Money💵emoji💵^{Talk💸Help out at CCI!} 03:23, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

I moved this from the main page. Not only did its addition stomp on text that was already in the article, it is unwikified and needs to be properly formatted per WP:MOS, looks like lots of good information, but the writing is unencyclopedic and POV in places. Katr67 18:58, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Bread & Roses Integrated Arts High School

Bread & Roses is the name of a NYC public school: http://schools.nyc.gov/SchoolPortals/05/M685/default.htm

might belong in the legacy portion of this article, or not I don't know much about the school, just noticed it's not on the page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.89.215.42 (talk) 19:13, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

External Links Section

This section is pretty far off the guidelines. Looks like the criteria is is any business, band, organization, event etc. with the term "Bread and Roses" in their name. SIncerley, 75.24.138.102 (talk) 18:12, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

AFL's role

Nlro (talk) 02:52, 9 May 2020 (UTC) I believe this edit should be made to clarify the AFL's role in the Bread and Roses strike. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Nlro/sandbox Nlro (talk) 02:52, 9 May 2020 (UTC)

Rose Schneiderman

Wikipedia states that Rose Schneiderman was the person who cointed "bread and roses" from this speech.

"What the woman who labors wants is the right to live, not simply exist — the right to life as the rich woman has the right to life, and the sun and music and art. You have nothing that the humblest worker has not a right to have also. The worker must have bread, but she must have roses, too. Help, you women of privilege, give her the ballot to fight with.[10]"

so who really said it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.248.13.32 (talk) 21:26, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
